I was working on the photo gallery template to edit the deprecated variables and ran into a problem. I'm using Erich's nifty sortable page list, but the page that sets up the URL parameters doesn't work right because of the space in between the sort order cirteria and "desc". I tried replacing the spaces with %20, but still no joy. Here's the before and after of the page that's broken. I have reverted it back for now until this can be solved.

After a PM exchange with Erich, it seems my code was fine after all. I think I may have had a caching issue (even though I'm sure I cleared it before reporting the problem). I put my new code back in and now i can't recreate the issue I was having last night. Bottom line is that the sortable list pages is working correctly and all deprecated variables and arguments have been updated.

Glad to hear it's working. Caching sometimes affects page display; more often it's the asynch compilation that creates confusion: when you edit a _template it can take a minute or so for all affected pages to be recompiled.

I wasn't really that clever. I sometimes bypass the built-in code block and "roll my own", especially when it will be virtually unreadable due to the never-ending horizontal scroll box the normal code block would have created for something like the code I pasted in the opening message in this thread.
